How we clean it
Inspect
We check the roof type, condition and safe access first.

Weather finishes it
Remaining lichen keeps fading over the next few weeks as rain washes it off.
Surfaces we clean
Good to know
We don't blast roofs with high pressure. It can crack tiles, strip Colorbond coating and force water under the roof.
Some lichen keeps fading for a few weeks after treatment as the rain washes it off. That's normal.
Roof painting and repairs aren't included, but a clean roof is the right first step if you're planning them.
What affects the price
- Size of the area (we measure it by satellite from your address)
- Surface type — sandstone, timber and roofs take more care than plain concrete
- How dirty it is — heavy mould, oil or rust needs extra treatment
- Access — steep blocks, stairs, two storeys or no outside tap

Roof cleaning FAQs
How much does roof cleaning cost in Brisbane?
It depends on the roof size, pitch, number of storeys and material. Send photos and your address for a fixed-price estimate.
Is high-pressure roof cleaning bad?
On most roofs, yes. It can crack tiles and damage coatings. A soft wash is safer and lasts longer.
Do you walk on the roof?
Only when it's needed and safe. Much of the treatment can be applied from the gutter line.
How long does the result last?
Usually several years, depending on shade and nearby trees.
